He’s my mule…

Not my drug mule…..my candy mule.
Today marks our 11th Anniversary (yay, us!), so we celebrated by dropping the kids off at grandma’s (thanks, grandma) and ran off to see Baby Mama. If you enjoy the Fey-Poehler comedy team, you’ll love this flick. (That’s not a guarantee, btw, just an educated assumption. :P)
So, anyway, […]

You Want Me to Find a What?

She invited me to share my side of the story, so here it goes.
I’m on Day 6 with the kiddos. Things have been going very well, but I’m ready for Kerri to get back in so many ways. (Get your mind out of the gutter.) I’m not really expecting her until bedtime; she and her […]

My Spouse Gets On My Nerves!

Right then… I think it’s been awhile since Kerri and I have had a good gripe, so I figure it’s time. Despite all the wonderful things we say each other (Her gamer post was really sweet.), there are in fact a few things that each of us do to get on the other’s nerves. For […]

And mark it with a “T”….

….for “tattoo,” that is.
Yes, I got one. I think this is the last public platform that I can exploit to share the news. Though, here, at least, it does lead to a relevant post.
I’ve talked for years about getting a tattoo. Years. Bald Man’s always been, “yeah, that’s cool.” So, […]

Why gamers make the best husbands…

My hubby is a gamer. I can’t even say a former gamer…..he and his buds still meet for 12-sided-diemania. And I really don’t mind it. He’s not even a computer gamer. Oh no. He’s old school. Miniatures and boards and everything. Only, unlike when they were 12, there’s […]

Speaking of speed, I was watching some trailers for Speed Racer earlier this evening with the boys. I’m normally a tight wad when it comes to movies, but we are TOTALLY going to see that one on the big screen. Luke’s birthday party has been planned! Onto this week’s links…

RIP - Mildred Loving

Do you know Mildred? What about her husband Richard? Have you heard of them? I hadn’t until I came across their names last week while reading Marriage: a History. Still, it’s not too late, and you should know who they are
Meet Mildred and Richard.

They grew up outside of Richmond, Virginia in the 40’s and met […]

Reacclimation - 13 Things I’ve Noticed Since My Wife Got Back

Kerri’s been back from her girlfriend road trip for almost a week, and even after an absence of only five days there is a bit of reacclimation that occurs. Here are a few things I’ve noticed:

The bed is smaller.
The bed is warmer.
The mornings are quieter… because I’m back in the office and starting them before […]

I’m back….

Well, from Bald Man’s “Bachelor” series, you’ll gather that I was gone for a bit. Oh, and I think I mentioned it, too.
Yes, I missed my family. I really did. But I’m so glad I was able to go. I mean, who wouldn’t love to have three hour dinners prepared by […]
